Which players stood out the most on offense and defense from the Minnesota Vikings in Week 9 against the Kansas City Chiefs and deserves to be the MVPs?

First, it needed to be said that losses suck, especially when a game seemed like it was within reach. That said, the Minnesota Vikings suffered their third loss of the season when the purple and gold visited Kansas City to take on the Chiefs.

It was a game that came down to the final moments. A last-second field goal by Kansas City gave the Chiefs a three-point win, with a final score of 23-26. The loss moved the Vikings to 6-3 on the season and kept them a game behind the Packers in the NFC North race.

There were quite a few disappointing performances in this game, but there were also some players who stepped up to take on a bigger role than usual or contributed to making the game as close as it was.

Let’s take a look at the MVP from the offense and defense of the Minnesota Vikings as well as some other players who deserve recognition for their efforts in Week 9.
